iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J02 | Breath analysis | Breath analysis as a diagnostic tool for early disease detection | Early disease detection is getting increased attention in the medical sector. In early stages, many diseases know little or no suffering at all, and the prospects of curing are much better. Early disease detection can literally mean the difference between life and death. | Adriaan van der Veen | completed | 2007 |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J04 | Regenmed | Metrology on a cellular scale for regenerative medicine | New and innovative forms of therapies, based on stem cells and tissue engineered medical products offer the hope of developing customizable implantable artificial tissue to overcome shortages of transplant organs and revolutionize injury and disease treatment. The project developed internationally accepted measurement technologies and standards to overcome major difficulties such as the scale up from lab to commercial scale production, predicting the long-term behaviour of products and satisfying regulators of the safety of the products. | Paul Tomlins | completed | 2007 |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J06 | Brachytherapy | Increasing cancer treatment efficacy using 3D brachytherapy | Brachytherapy (BT) is a radiotherapy technique in which small encapsulated radioactive sources are placed inside or in close proximity to the treatment volume, delivering a high dose to the tumour at small distances while sparing the surrounding tissue. About 100 000 patients per year are treated in the European area with BT (about 10% of radiotherapy treatments). | completed | 2007 | |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J07 | EBCT | External Beam Cancer Therapy | In the European Union there are about 2.3 million cancer incidents every year. In terms of the number of deaths caused per year, cancer ranges second in the European mortality statistics. Given the massive extent of the cancer threat, decisive measures are required to improve cure rates. | Ulrike Ankerhold | completed | 2007 |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J10 | TRACEBIOACTIVITY | Traceable measurements for biospecies and ion activity in clinical chemistry | Traceable measurement results in clinical chemistry are mandatory in Europe. Within this framework, measurement methods and materials are evaluated which can serve as the required higher order reference points and which are linked with the SI as closely as possible. Reference and test laboratories in Europe profit from this newly developed system in a fast and efficient way. | Bernd Güttler | completed | 2007 |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J.11 | CLINBIOTRACE | Traceability of Complex Biomolecules and Biomarkers in Diagnostics - Effecting Measurement Comparability in Clinical Medicine | Stakeholders representing policy, diagnostic industry, academia and healthcare quality assessors, have highlighted the need for the further development of traceable reference measurement systems for complex biomolecules (e.g. disease state biomarkers and protein markers relevant for therapeutic intervention). | completed | 2007 | |
iMERA-Plus | Length | T3.J1.1 | Nanoparticles | Traceable Characterisation of Nanoparticles | Ever since the development of nanoparticles in the late 1960's and early 1970's they have been known to act as a bridge between atomic structures and bulk properties. This means they have potentially unique properties, for example as highly concentrated suspensions in the ink industry as drug delivery agents for the pharmaceutical industry, and in novel composite materials. Additional toxicological concerns require strict and well defined standards to be applied. | completed | 2007 |
